Hornet control in Metairie

Hornets and wasps can look similar, so it’s normal to feel unsure. We take care of the identification for you. During your inspection, our tech checks the nest’s location, size, and activity so you know exactly what you’re dealing with—no guessing, no pressure.

Yes. Our goal is to protect your family while we remove the threat. We use a controlled, targeted treatment outdoors that keeps kids and pets safe while reducing the risk of stings. You can simply keep everyone inside for a short window while we work, and then life returns to normal.

Hornet calls are treated as urgent because stings can be serious. We offer fast scheduling—often same-day or next-day—to help you feel safe again quickly.

Hornets in Louisiana can be extremely defensive and react fast to movement or vibrations. DIY attempts often lead to multiple stings and nests spreading deeper into siding or trees. Our techs wear full protective gear and use tools designed for safe removal, so you don’t have to take that risk.

Once we remove the nest and treat the area, hornets rarely return to the same spot. We also help you understand what attracted them in the first place, like shaded eaves, open gaps, or yard debris, so you can reduce chances of another colony building nearby.

Our team handles nests in hard-to-reach places, including eaves, rafters, trees, sheds, and porch overhangs. We use extension tools and protective suits, allowing us to treat areas safely without damaging your property.

Cost depends on how large the nest is and where it’s located. Most hornet treatments fall under a simple one-time service fee with upfront pricing—no surprises and no hidden add-ons. You’ll know the exact price before we start.

Hornets are usually handled as a one-time specialized service. But if you’re a LaJaunie’s customer on a recurring plan, you get priority scheduling and preferred pricing.

We ask that everyone, including and especially pets, stay inside until we finish. The process is quick, and most treatments take less than an hour. Once the area settles, you’re free to use your yard again.

Hornets don’t chew wood the way carpenter bees do, but nests near doors, porches, or attic openings can create safety issues and attract other pests. Treating early prevents larger colonies and protects the areas your family uses most.

Call us quickly if you notice:

• A growing paper nest under eaves or in trees

• Increased hornets flying near entry points

• Stings or aggressive behavior

• Nest activity close to kid or pet play areas

Louisiana hornets grow fast in warm weather, so early treatment helps avoid dangerous swarms.
